HAPTARA (lit. conclusion)

This article appears in Volume V12, Page 934 of the Encyclopedia Britannica.

Encyclopedia Britannica - Main :: HAN-HEG
HAPTARA (lit. conclusion) , the Hebrew
title
  given to the prophetic lessons with which the
ancient
 
Synagogue
  service concluded. In the time of Christ these prophetic lessons were already in vogue, and Christ himself read the lessons and discoursed on them in the synagogues of Galilee. In the
modern
 
synagogue
  these readings from the prophets are regularly included in the
ritual
  of Sabbaths, festivals and some other occasions.
A
list
  of the current lessons is given in the Jewish Encyclopedia, vol. vi. pp. 136-137. (I. A.)
